In our next episode, we visit with @vanessarileyauthor, author of “Island Queen,” a novel based on the true-life story of Dorothy Kirwan Thomas, a free woman of color who rose from slavery to become one of the most successful and powerful landowners in the colonial West Indies.⁠

In addition to being a novelist, Vanessa holds a doctorate in mechanical engineering and a master’s in industrial engineering and engineering management from Stanford University. She also earned BS and MS in mechanical engineering from Penn State University. ⁠

She currently juggles mothering a teen, cooking for her military-man husband, and speaking at women's and STEM events. She loves baking her Trinidadian grandma's cake recipes and collecting Irish crochet lace. You can catch her writing from the comfort of her porch in Atlanta, Georgia, with a cup of Earl Grey tea. ⁠

Stay tuned for this episode going live, August 6, at 6:30am. ⁠

We covered “Island Queen” by @vanessarileyauthor this week for New-to-Us November and had a fun IG live with her yesterday ❤️

If you are new or enjoy historical novels based on a true story then this is for you. This is about Dorothy Kirwan Thomas and she had an extraordinary life! This book has hard to swallow content because of what was happening in the 18th/19th century, however there’s adventure, humor, and romance.

I can’t wait for this to be turned into film 🎞

Check out the link in bio on @litwallflowerspodcast for the episode and the feed for the IG live with #vanessariley #islandqueen
